Surely this is the same only you need to specify any of the doors. If I asked you if the left door was the correct answer, would you say "yes"? You still get the lie about the lie, so he says yes if it's right and no if it's wrong.

I hate people that say lol instead of just laughing!

Ah, got it. That's a good one.

Wow I'm lost with this one. What do you mean by try typing it out? My minds stuck on thinking maths T R E E how do you make that as 15?

I always thought of it as "if I asked you if this was the right door, would you say yes?" forcing the double negative out of the liar. If either guardian answers yes then this is the right door, otherwise they both answer no.

I wish to join you on your quest to wreak havoc on Earth. But you still have to slide up and down a 30 ft stripper pole while very slowly counting to infinity and back.

I used to love watching Dragon Ball, a lot of petty talk during the fights though as I remember it! I liked the Cell games, that must have been around 10 years ago at least. You can see a lot of these battles on youtube still it's pretty cool.

Giant spiders that dash across the room when you try to catch them!

Haha bra! How's this... A proton's gone shopping with her two hyperactive electron children, and she says "if you two brats don't stopping pulling on me I'm gonna give you both such a smack." I'm sorry if I've offended anyone who knows of the mentioned abusive behaviour that goes on within atoms every single day.

Thanks. I looked at the Wolfram Alpha, it's pretty good. Yeah, the web is stuffed full of blurb that would need to be filtered through somehow if it were to be hooked into it. I was playing around with a program to download the text from certain web pages, namely Wikipedia, and store them as txt files to be used somehow as a database storage of information.

I saw a youtube documentary on using quantum physics for mind power, basically saying that like this experiment, only when we witnesses a part of reality is when it snaps into place and we become certain about it. Kind of like how if a tree falls but you didn't see it then in your mind no tree fell because it's not part of your reality. The video got so many bad comments it was hilarious. But how about the idea that this is a shared world and we each just witness different things?

I totally agree with Fogo's illustration. Create or do something that you'll be remembered for and you pretty much will live on forever.

Hi everyone. I'm new to these forums and just thought I'd put this on the boards. I've recently become a big fan of the artificial intelligences and I've wanted to develop a program that could mimic human intelligence as the Turing test was designed for. The Turing test had an observer, who would have a conversation (like in MSN chat) with a human and a machine but didn't know which was which. The machine has to behave human and use language in the same way. I don't think any machine has successfully fooled the observer completely though. I can imagine it being hard enough just to create a program that can form proper sentences! Let alone have its own opinions about the things it was being asked about. I think though if the machine could be hooked into the net and be able to lookup and search forums for keywords and topics, it might be able to form opinions from there, even if it is just a straight copy of text from a message board, at least it would be speaking human or mimicking rather. What if then the machine had access to every web forum and could scan them to forge its own opinions about things. It might be going slightly off track by saying that this method could create an all knowing entity that's based on the collective knowledge (or in some cases rabble!) of the internet. Do such things exist already?

Just curious here. Why only include the 10% safety margin for trips longer than 2 hours? The margin for error should apply for any distance.

Hi. You'll want to use Pythagorus' theorum to calculate the 3d distance between any 2 atoms. For each distance, put it through the function said (1/distance) then just sum them all together to give the result.
